Adventure Tours offered the first Christmas Market trip in 2006.  The tour was titled Mozart’s Christmas and visited Salzburg, Linz, Prague, and Vienna.  We were hooked.  We went back to Bavaria in 2008, on a Christmas River Cruise down the Danube in 2010, and on a similar cruise in 2014.  We'll be booking a Christmas Market trip to Germany for 2018.  In this photo album, we’ve included a mix of the sights and the people we traveled with.
